Lip Lift

Lip Lift at Cadogan Clinic, London’s Leading Cosmetic Surgery Specialists.

What is a Lip Lift?

A lip lift is a surgical procedure designed to enhance the appearance of the upper lip by reducing the distance between the lip and the nose.

Unlike treatments focused on adding lip volume, a surgical lip lift primarily aims to enhance the lip's height and definition. Remarkably, this procedure can even create the illusion of fuller lips without the need for traditional fillers. What sets lip lift surgery apart is its permanent nature, making it an appealing choice for those who prefer a low-maintenance solution, avoiding the periodic upkeep often associated with dermal fillers.

One of the most co mmon issues that a lip lift effectively addresses is thinning lips, a concern frequently associated with the natural ageing process. Additionally, it can counteract the effects of a downturned mouth, which is another age-related concern. By opting for a lip lift, you can ‌turn back the clock, rejuvenating the central portion of your face for a more youthful appearance.

At the Cadogan Clinic, we offer a range of customised lip lift London options tailored to your unique facial features and desired outcomes. During your consultation, our skilled surgeons will thoroughly discuss these options with you, ensuring that the chosen approach is the perfect fit for your goals.

Why Do People Have Lip Lift Surgery?

Lip Lift Surgery is designed and performed to address a number of functional and medical concerns, and can also achieve several aesthetic improvements to the lips:

Medical reasons:

- To correct congenital or injury-related changes in lip proportion or symmetry that may affect function or oral balance.

- To reconstruct tissue following trauma, surgery, or significant weight changes.

- To revise the effects of conditions such as facial palsy or cleft lip.

Aesthetic reasons:

- To shorten the distance between the upper lip and nose, creating a more youthful appearance.

- To enhance lip shape and definition while maintaining natural expression.

- To restore facial balance and harmony for a refreshed, proportionate smile.
